Answer:

No

Explanation:

6 and three-fourths divided by nine divided by 10 is


6 (3)/(4) / 9 / 10

6 and three-fourths divided by nine-tenths is


6(3)/(4) / (9)/(10)

Now we need to evaluate each expression.

Evaluate the first expression


6 (3)/(4) / 9 / 10 =


= 6.75 / 9 / 10

Do the divisions, one at a time, from left to right in the order they appear.


= 0.75 / 10


= 0.075

Evaluate the second expression


6(3)/(4) / (9)/(10) =


= (27)/(4) / (9)/(10)


= (27)/(4) * (10)/(9)


= (27 * 10)/(4 * 9)


= (270)/(36)


= 7.5

As you can see, the expressions are not equal as the first one equals 0.075, and the second one equals 7.5
